Today hasn’t gone especially well! And I’m honest it’s made me quite grumpy at this moment! I know tomorrow will be better and it’s mainly my fault!

Last night we on once again spent the evening chatting to our friends and having a cheese midnight feast! It reay would have benefitted from port though! We got relentlessly bitten by Mosquitos and I now a red blotchy mess!

We packed up swiftly as it was raining. Not proper rain but that annoying spray rain. We had porridge for breakfast first then the routine of packing got a little smoother.

As we left our friendship behind in noirmoutier, we also had2 sad little girls sobbing! Bless! When I tried to console penny her answer was “she was my best friend”!

The Center of the town was buzzing As we drove through, with he market in full swing and a queue of tourists waiting for their turn to be part of the fun. I found myself wondering if that campsite was cool camping? We found the campsite out of the cool camping France book. I came to the conclusion that it certainly was. As washed up my breakfast plates next to a chap cleaning his winkles out in the designated seafood cleaning sink I longed for my camera. How many places do you camp on the beach and gather your own dinner? If its glamping you’re after, it’s a million miles away. With mixed loos and showers I’ve heard bottom noises I’d had nightmares about… Ladies there were no strategic flushes in these toilets! But I don’t go in much for glamping… Small pitches meant fun evenings with new friends so yes I think it deserves the title cool!

So we left passing to stop and buy the famous salt…. Pics to follow as the iPad not charged! The water really is salty here. Made our purchases and moved on.

It really rained hard then! But in true freckle form the sun came out for our arrival and crossing the bridge. It was €16 to cross it!!!

This is when the trouble began! We arrived at the campsite with our booking…. To be told that it wasn’t a confirmation and that whilst I’d emailed with my payment details they’d ignored it. We had 4 nights booked and managed to get a night here with the possibility to extend on a different pitch tomorrow. I was gutted! The journey was much longer than planned and the children were restless. We took the 1 night and went for a ride to find somewhere else, but there was no room at the inn, then stews bike got a flat at the furthest point. Great.

So at the moment I don’t know what our adventure will bring tomorrow, where we will be or what we will be doing! Tomorrow is another day, I’m having a gin and chilling now!
